Andrew Yang: UBI Before UHI, Solving Job Loss, and the Future of Work <https://youtu.be/toE56X2h0wk>
1982: "Networking and the American Pioneer" predicted the internet disruption of established political structures in the form of a populist backlash against re-centralization of communication due to failure to properly regulate de facto network effect monopoly power. 1990: Launch Services Purchase Act of 1990 signed into law paving the way for commercialization of space launch services. 1991: July 31 START Treaty Hearings testimony "Necessity and Incentives Opening the Space Frontier" on the 1990 Act's role in turning the war machines of the FSU and US toward making war on lifelessness in the space frontier. 1992: "A Net Asset Tax Based On The Net Present Value Calculation and Market Democracy" written in response to my participation in commercializing the MX Missile for commercial launch, as well as the prior two milestones. This anticipated the need to support entrepreneurship by eliminating all taxes on economic activity and taxing only idle capital (net asset liquidation value) at the long term US treasury rate and privatizing delivery of social goods with that revenue through a citizen's dividend delivered Unconditionally (not "Universal" nor "Basic" since both those terms lack sufficient operational definition). That's when it became obvious that the existing political system was incapable of preparing for the future even given a few decade warning by someone intimately involved with and making tremendous personal sacrifices to bring those warnings to the attention of the DC thinktanks. For a long time I hoped that reviving the Treaty of Westphalia's Cuius regio, eius religio could avert a rhyme with The Thirty Years War following on the 1982 prediction of the neo-Gutenberg revolution, with the proviso that rather than a citizen's dividend, migrations would be coupled with land value authority by their mutually consenting jurisdictions. This would have provided the necessary control experiments to reform the social pseudosciences consistent with informed consent. It's too late now for that. So I then proposed using the Hutter Prize for Lossless Compression of Human Knowledge, in an attempt to operationalize "truth" consistent with Moore's Law's unleashing of model induction. Then everyone went insane when the mere Turing Test was achieved and lost sight of the underlying foundations. So that's why I proposed Hume's Guillotine that uses a wide range of longitudinal macrosocial measures to discover causal structures, under the "Many Analysts, One Dataset" approach to reforming the social pseudosciences, but further disciplined by the Hutter Prize criterion of lossless compression: If we're not permitted to conduct social experiments on ourselves without centralized authority's vulnerability to rent-seeking, then at least let us provide the rent-seekers with the scientific models they need to make informed decisions that approach "enlightened self interest". Is that too much to ask of the rent-seekers? They are, after all, the ones with the money to underwrite the Hume's Guillotine prize to a level commensurate with the interests in distorting the social sciences. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T61af43a4faebe0ab-Mf05c9a45f182ebb94c175f06 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
